Greetings,
Here is another “different” vintage lot of cards covering various sports and sporting activities.
The highlight of this grouping is the T49 Yale card. It is quite rare and one of the earliest football cards produced. I believe that only the Beecher card from the 1888 N172 set as well as the cards from the 1894 N302 Mayo set are earlier. This T49 is the first 20th century football card issued.
This lot includes:
- 1910 Schultes College Series (T49) - The Yale card - Football
- 1925 Turf cigarettes Swimming card w/ Johnny Weismuller
- 1928 Salem cigarettes Bob Slee card - Check out the goggles on the guy in front!
- 1928 Josetti cigarettes Ice hockey
- 1935 Salem cigarettes Bull Fighting
- 1936 Ardath tobacco Fred Perry - Tennis
- 1956 Adventure Gum Bob Mathias - Athletics
- 1959 Barratt History of the Air - The Wright Brothers - Flight
- 1963 Kellogg Famous Firsts - First Ascent of Mount Everest - Mountaineering
- 1968 Campioni Dello Sport Chet Morgan - Baseball
The condition of these is quite normal for stuff this old with the T49 having creasing. See images below. PM or post in thread with any questions or requests.
With the inclusion of the rare T49 in this lot, I’ll make the starting bid a very reasonable $30. Please use at least full dollar increments.
This will end on August 22 at 2100 EST. There will be no roll over time. The high bid at the end moment wins this. Make sure to follow along and bid in a timely manner if you are interested.
PayPal FF preferred. Shipping is included in the final price.
Good luck!
